Meh

I’m naïve to your reasoning
I don’t know what you want
In my defense
You’re pretty tense
For bein’ “nonchalant”
You say it doesn’t bother you
Your body language lies
You’d rather look at T.V.
Than look me in the eyes
I’m not one to provocate
I’ll bow out gracefully
But just know this
Your lips, I kiss
With insincerity

Those last three lines are just pissa Gayle. Nicely written with a bite to it.

Thx Craig. I guess I write about bits and pieces of myself as well as other people I have known. This is the result of such potpourri! !;p
